Ok, maybe I can request something a little more general and get some help?

I am hoping to get a hockey jersey from a Latvian team, perferably a team from the city of Riga. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I would suggest google. Latvia is not really a part of Russia, despite the huge russian minority there. though maybe there's a latvian russian here, who knows.

>Latvia is not really a part of Russia

It's not a part of Russia at all :)

It has been a part of Russian Empire from 18th century until 1917, and then a part of the Soviet Union from 1940 to 1991, though.

You might have better luck asking in [livejournal.com profile] latvians.

dude, it ain't a sports community and your request is sooo out of place here. I do understand that anything beyond the long-dead Iron Curtain is Russia to the majority of non-Europeans, but Latvia (as much as I love this country) tries to not have anything in common with Russia or Russian-speakers, so look for it elsewhere...
